I think people take that story about the USWNT losing to the 15u team and just run with it to the extreme. What they forget is that the 15u team are the elite of the elite for 15 year olds in the United States. They are not just your random run of the mill soccer team from Bumfrick Middle school or Bumfrick Highschool. If that 15u team were to play a team of random 15 year olds from your local middle/high school, the score would be something like 10-0 at halftime.

I saw a 7th grade boy this year that was probably 6'2 and had the smoothest jumper I've ever seen. Sure, put a team of those kids together, you got something to work with. But the average 13 year old kids are fricking tiny and have meh basketball skills and would alll be giving up 50-100lbs on WNBA girls. They would not be faster, they would not be able to jump higher, they would be infinitely worse at outside shooting, decision making...and so on and so forth..
